MSU officials respond to Larry Nassar allegations

As more alleged victims of former Michigan State University physician Larry Nassar come forward, attention has turned to the liability of the university.

Friday afternoon, the MSU Board of Trustees met before delivering a response. While the board did ask for an independent review of the facts by the Attorney General’s office, they also gave a vote of support to school president Lou Anna K. Simon. In a statement, board Chairperson Brian Breslin said “We continue to believe President Simon is the right leader for the university and she has our support.”

On Saturday, Breslin announced he would not seek re-election as a Michigan State University trustee.
